I get this message on boot, or when starting a service (such as samba).

Code:

* Starting
find: /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/: No such file or directory
* no interface module has been loaded
/etc/init.d/net.eth0: line 34: /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/helpers.d/functions: No such file or directory
* Starting
find: /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/: No such file or directory
* no interface module has been loaded
* ERROR: Problem starting needed service net.lo
* samba was not started.

All of a sudden i reboot my PC and as I boot I start getting these messages. What does this mean? I have entries in /etc/init.d for net.eth0 & net.eth1

The whole message when booting reads:
/etc/init.d/net.lo line34: /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/helpers.d/functions: no such file or directory
no interface module has been loaded
cannot start netmount as net.eth0 could not start

/etc/init.d/net.eth0 line34: /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/helpers.d/functions: no such file or directory
no interface module has been loaded
cannot start netmount as net.eth0 could not start

/etc/init.d/net.eth1 line34: /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/helpers.d/functions: no such file or directory
no interface module has been loaded
cannot start netmount as net.eth1 could not start

I have 2 nics when I do a lspc it shows 1 nic as SMC1211TX and the other as D-Link rtl3189
So I checked my kernel to make sure I had them enabled which I do. But really just 2 days ago I had no problem with getting network access at all. They would get IP addresses at boot up.

Waassuupp with this!!!

It's the baselayout update to 1.12.4-rX. Most people seem to solve it by deleting net.eth0 and net.eth1 from /etc/init.d and making them symlinks to net.lo._________________The avatar is jorma, a "duck" from "Elephants Dream": the film and all the production materials have been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 License, see orange.blender.org for details.

I'm afraid I'm having this same series of error messages, and etc-update didn't help. I'm not sure where to go from here, and would welcome any advice. Just to be clear, my individual network adapter scripts are linked to net.lo; it is net.lo that is refusing to start.

Thanks

Edit: I gave in and did a full system update, and that fixed the problem, so this must be an older issue (yeah, I know all the posts are much older than mine... that's what 270 days of uptime get you). Anyway, yeah, this is no longer an issue for me.
